Garrahan Approves 60% Base Pay Increase for Staff, Retroactive to October

The boost applies to base salaries only, with the existing monthly bonus kept in place, leaving an estimated 35%–40% increase in take-home pay.

Overview

  • The Medical Directorate and Board approved the raise under Administrative Decision 29/2025, with some reports citing a 61% figure and immediate implementation with October back pay.
  • The measure covers permanent staff, public-employment contractors, fellows, and residents with Institutional Scholarships.
  • September’s fixed monthly bonus remains in effect at 450,000 pesos for clinical staff and 350,000 pesos for non-clinical staff.
  • Hospital officials say funds are available to advance payments while national transfers are processed.
  • Unions APyT and ATE hailed the move as a victory after months of strikes and mobilizations, while authorities frame it as strengthening high-complexity pediatric care at Argentina’s leading public pediatric center.
